The King’s Secret
Many people know King Charles is a member of the world-famous Magic Circle in London, but what is less well known is that he has also founded an elite secret society of magicians, known as “The Noble 52”. The club has only 52 members and each one of them has been personally selected by The King himself. They are some of the greatest practitioners of the art of magic alive today.
To celebrate his coronation to the throne of Great Britain, King Charles minted 52 commemorative coins emblazoned with The Noble 52 crest which he gifted to each individual member of his nobility, alongside an ornate gilded deck of matching gold embossed playing cards.
Not only is the society itself a closely guarded secret, its members are known only to a select few. But if you ever see a magician holding a golden deck of cards with a matching commemorative coin... you’ll know you are looking at one of the world’s very best magicians.

The Noble One
The Noble 52 is the most exclusive magic club in the world with only 52 of the best magicians on the planet personally invited by King Charles III of England himself to become members. With a heritage reaching back to King Arthur and Merlin the secret society of The Noble 52 has been woven into the fabric of world history, influencing some of the most monumental events of the ages.
Said to have been created by Merlin and The Lady of The Lake, The Noble One is a legendary ring thought to hold immeasurable magic powers. It has been lost to time, but its legend lives on.
Every year King Charles bestows upon one single member of the 52 the title of The Noble One and shows a recognition of the member being amongst the very best magicians alive. They are presented with a commemorative ring inspired by the mythical Noble One Ring. It is a ceremonial piece of fine art more for display than fashion and is presented in a velvet ring box. It is embossed with the emblem of The Noble 52.
To accompany the ring, the recipient is also gifted the most opulent deck of cards ever created. Gilt edged and embossed with 24 carat gold the prestigious Noble 52 deck can only be gifted by the King himself. Its design pays homage to the 52’s Arthurian roots with each court card depicting one of the original 52 members.

Noble Virtues
The Noble 52 is the most exclusive magic club in the world — only 52 of the greatest magicians have ever been personally invited by King Charles III of England to join its ranks. Tracing its origins back to the days of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, the path to becoming one of the Noble 52 has long remained a closely guarded secret... until now.
Each initiate must pass through five stages of initiation, mastering each of the Five Noble Virtues along the way. The final stage is performed before the King himself, in a sacred ritual known only as The Proving of Virtues.

Unicorns signify nobility and magic. The geometric shapes of the Masons, the ever-present watchful eye of the Illuminati and the wheel of the Magic Circle can all be seen in the design.
